More than 3 keys don't work - is it me or do i need to change somethin

[Kendor]

Howdy all. Just wondering if anybody else has had problems when they have to play notes that require 3 or more keys to be pressed at the same time. No matter how hard I try 3 or more keys just won't register as being pressed while in the game. I am using the newest version o fthe program. Is there something I am doing wrong or can fix somehow? Thanks.

This was happening to me too. If you are using the default keys (the F1-F5 keys) then it wont let you do more than 2 keys at once. You have to change the key settings. I changed the keys to be by the numbers, starting from 1 to 5 or whatever you want.

Thanks, that was it. Now just gotta get used to the keys being further from the edge of my keyboard.

People, this question has been asked for over 10000 times, while taking a look at the Forum FAQ would have solved this problem...

Not reading?

Q: Why can I only use certain key combinations? e.g. Why won't F3 + F4 + Strum (Enter) work together?

A: Keyboards always have certain key combinations that cannot be pressed together. This saves on manufacturing costs as it is very rare that those combos would need to be used (aside from in FoF obviously).
Only way around this is to remap your keys. Usually using 1-5 rather than the F keys works. That, or try switching which key is used to strum.

Rule #6: No asking questions that are on the boards FAQ!
Violation of this rule results in a raise in warning level.

Actually thats not correct!
Some people CAN use the default keys. It is completely different on every keyboard. Most of the time , you just need to change your strum key to make a difference.
